Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Gameplay Trailer & Special Editions Detailed

Ubisoft has revealed a lot about about the upcoming release of Assassin's Creed Iv: Black Flag. A set of collector's editions in Europe and North America and a new VIP-only program for Assassin's Creed: 4 Black Flag were revealed today, alongside the game's first gameplay trailer.


Assassin's Creed 4 will have four different collector's editions in the UK and Ireland, and one in North America, depending on how you preorder and purchase the game. The "Black Chest" edition is exclusive to Ubisoft's proprietary Uplay network and includes "everything a true Assassin's Creed fan could desire," including a diorama figurine of protagonist Captain Edward Kenway, an art book, and all of the existing unlockable in-game content available in the other versions.

The "Buccaneer Edition" will be available at Game in the UK and Gamestop, the "Skull Edition," available market-wide in the UK, and the "Special Edition," which is exclusive to Game in the UK and Xtravision in Ireland. Gamers in North America can order the "Black Island" pack through Gamestop. The contents of all five editions are available in this post.

Ubisoft has also announced "The Watch," a VIP program available for customers who pre-order the game from the Uplay service, Game and Amazon in the UK or Gamestop in Ireland. The Watch grants bonus content and a deeper look at the world of the Assassin's Creed series, and members will be able to "take part in an exclusive quest designed specifically for VIP members."

Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is scheduled for release October 29 in North America and November 1 in Europe, on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Wii U and Windows PC.
